Re: {Chrysler 300} Tires

[EM-ATC-2021 <millserat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Depends on size and width of whitewall. Radial or repro bias? (I 
recommend radials if you drive the car much, but repro bias are correct 
look for show cars.)

Narrow Whitewall (approx 3/4" - 1") plenty of 15 inch production tires 
still available, Hankook, Nexen, Cooper (Toyo Extensa AS up until last 
year - being replaced by AS2 blackwall only - may be some AS still in 
inventory). Most tire dealers can get at least one of these - or 
Discount Tire, etc. on Internet.

Narrow Whitewall 14 inch largest size currently in regular production is 
P215/75R14 - Hankock H724 (36.7 in OD) (available in Blackwall and 
Whitewall so make sure you get the whitewall) (made in Korea or 
Indonesia) (appears to be being replaced by H735) and maybe others. Also 
some noname Chinese brands (or at least names you never heard of that 
come and go - sometimes same model name appears under multiple brand 
names - in my opinion beware of these).

Repro bias = Coker Tire or Kelsey Tire.

Specialty radial tires = Coker "American Classic" or Diamondback = 
narrow and wide white and more odd sizes - 15's and bigger 14's.

American Classic has specific sizes and whitewall configurations, most 
likely batch produced so you may or may not find what you want in 
inventory.

Diamondback will custom apply whitewall in multiple width options and 
colors, and they recently came out with an Auburn Classic in H78R14 
(27.5 in OD) which is a good match for older Michelins in this size 
replacing 8.50-14 / 8-55-14 (slightly taller than 225/75R14 27.1" OD 
when last produced by Cooper circa 2006, but slightly shorter than 
235/75R14 American Classic 27.87 in OD)

You can probably get specialty tires ordered thru your dealer, but these 
are already expensive. You can also get them from Jegs or directly from 
Coker or Diamondback shipped to you or a specified dealer to install.
